I'm stressed having my family around all the time while working, they keep coming into my workspace. How do I manage this?
Thank you for your post! It seems like having your family around all the time is stressful. At times like these, when our schedules or lives suddenly change, it can be quite difficult to manage. Also, know that feeling stressed during these changes are quite normal, but it can still be overwhelming.
We suggest finding time to speak with your family to decide when it's appropriate for them to come into your workspace and when you require your space so that you can get your work done. Perhaps you can also make a small routine for yourself, where you take some alone-time breaks during the day. Also, practicing some mid-day relaxation can help you cope with some of the stresses you are experiencing.
Here is a great resource on stress and anxiety to check out, which might be helpful.

Thank you for this resource, it's very helpful!
Thank you for the advice and the resource! I think making a small routine will be helpful for me, I will try talking to my family later today :)
I agree! This has been a huge challenge for me too. Especially having the line between work and home blurred now. Keeping the boundary clear and not burning out will be tough.
